Oklahoma City Public Schools is rolling out changes regarding security at athletic events in the wake of the deadly shooting at a high school football game in Choctaw.
Oklahoma City Mayor David Holt announced on Thursday that the city is "close to a jointly agreeable proposal" that would build a new downtown arena for the Oklahoma City Thunder and other events.
Not sure what kind of discussion you're wanting to see, but I feel like a lot of current discussion that would be considered non-left-biased is over things like "do trans people deserve to exist?" and I don't think those are discussions worth having.
This is just a thought I had that I wanted to bounce off people who know more about ActivityPub/the fediverse— would it be feasible (and would it make sense) to build an open-source, ActivityPub-compatible dating app as an alternative to Tinder/Bumble/etc.? And if so, what could that look like? Obviously the small userbase...
Thanks, I've seen Alovoa! Is it federated though? I couldn't find anything about that. I feel like having different instances you could join would add a lot, e.g. you could be on an instance for specific hobbies, identities, etc.
These are great things to think about, thank you! It definitely feels like it would be a big undertaking if it did happen, and starting small seems like the right move.
Gonna start by saying I am super nervous even posting this. It is one thing to even admit things to myself in my head let alone reach out on the internet. Hopefully it is okay to post this here....
look at how these sorts of things were handled scientifically in the past vs how they're handled today
This is a big red flag to me. The scientific industry has a frankly awful history when it comes to its understanding and treatment of queer/trans people, and looking at how "these sorts of things" were treated historically is going to result in you seeing lots of discounted homophobic/transphobic ideas that won't provide you any clarity.
OP, the feelings you describe can be really common for trans people discovering themselves and are nothing to be ashamed of. I recommend giving yourself the space to try out the things that you want, experiment with how people refer to you, etc. There's no rush or pressure to have any definite answers. Realizing these things about yourself, especially as an adult, can feel earth-shattering, so please give yourself as much grace as you can 💙

Hi! I'm Audrey! I'm a former Reddit mostly-lurker/occasional-poster who really likes the concept of the fediverse and wants to see it succeed :) I'm queer/trans and interested in finding more queer community here. I like writing, board games, swimming, cafe-hopping, horror, and drawing imaginary subway maps.
I'll probably post them somewhere at some point! I like coming up with what public transit systems might look like in cities that don't have extensive ones already.
